About Us

One team for brand, web, marketing and IT.

Discover
our story

One Design Group connects creativity, technology and commercial performance into one seamless service. It brings together the creative heritage of Halogen Creative and the technical expertise of One IT Support, combining over 40 years of experience across brand, design, web, digital marketing and managed IT. Businesses do not think in separate departments. They want one partner that understands the whole picture: the brand, the website, the campaigns and the systems behind them.

The group exists because collaboration made the case for it. Matt Haycock of Halogen Creative and Richard Eyles of One IT Support met in a networking group and recognised an immediate alignment: listen properly, be honest with clients and never cut corners. Working together on client projects, the results were stronger and more joined up than either could deliver alone. Today the group is three companies in close collaboration, spanning creative, brand, web and AI-assisted growth through to managed services and cyber security.

What drives us has never changed. We build long-term relationships, deliver measurable outcomes and stay honest when something is not working. Every investment a client makes is one they can justify. Built to be found. Designed to be chosen. Marketed to win.

It's what our
 clients say
that matters

“We’ve worked with Matt and the team for years, first through Halogen Creative and now at One Design Group. Coming from outside the marketing world, we’ve asked plenty of questions and never once felt like a nuisance. They’re patient and generous with their knowledge, and the quality of the work speaks for itself. Professional, responsive and genuinely easy to work with. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.”

John Hibbert, Manager

O'Brien Self Storage

“I’ve worked with Andrew and the team for a good few years now on my web design and digital marketing and honestly can’t fault them. Andrew’s got a brilliant eye for design and pays real attention to detail. He took the time to properly understand my business, my clients and what my competitors are doing, and it shows. My website looks great and does exactly what I need it to.”
